Hey from Coastal NC

Post by OldMarineH34HAC »

Former Marine and retired IT exec, been reloading about 15 years. I load and unload pistol rounds exclusively (9mm, .40 and .45 cal).
Started on a Lee Pro 1000 (I know, ignorance breeds fearlessness). I have learned to love my Pro 1K although the marriage has not been entirely without a few misunderstandings. Always interested in others' experiences or in assisting the new folks where I can.

Herzlich willkommen from Germany!

Nice to see another p1k user here. Most guys to rifle reloads on single stage here. I own three of these nice progressive presses plus a classic turret. I load .38spl, .45ACP and mostly .44-40 in mine.

Already posted some tips to improve working on these machines, you'll find them when browsing the forum. Of you have any hints and tips, I'm looking forward to learn, too!
